comment What is the difference between ping -w and ping -W?
oh, my man page (archlinux) is missing the -w flag, but has the description. I just believed it to belong to -W. So no way to define a timeout smaller that 1s?

comment how to use patch and diff to merge two files
does work in this particular example, but NOT in general: If the name in_b_but_different_val has a value of #00AABB sort will put that on top and erases the second value instead of the first one

comment missing argument to find -exec
@jw013 sorry about that! I was actually misreading it, most likely because I found so many examples that use the slash instead of the backslash. In fact the manpage is right!

@D_Bye yeah, it works. If you could explain WHY I have to take a backslash instead of a slash I'll accept this

that is a workaround to do what I which, but no answer on what I miss. I will use your solution for now, but I'd still like to know what I miss on the find command
